    Abstract:
    Two patients with HELLP syndrome are presented and hepatic subcapsular haematoma and infarction were documented. The first clinical manifestation in both cases was hypotension. A surgical pregnancy interruption was required. These patients also presented leukocytosis, renal insufficiency, severe hepatic failure and the presence of hepatic encephalopathy (grade III-IV). One patient died in spite of medical intervention with multiple organ failure. The other patient is still alive but with minor liver dysfunction.
